What's the worst question anyone's ever had on a quiz machine? You know the one where the machine basically says "not today old chum"?
I know theres a topic on wrong / errors in questions so I'm only talking about legit questions whereby the answer is correct, but very few people (unless they learned the questions) would ever know the answer.
The Weakest Link once asked me for Mike Tyson's prison number.
And dont get me started on spot the difference deluxe :x ....
My all-time favourite is still being asked Michael Caine's serial number in the Army on (I think) the original Give Us A Break. I love that sort of question - realistically a maximum of one person in the entire world would know the answer!
Got asked about 5 ridiculous unanswerable questions in a row on football manager quiz last night, which i battled through, then the game made me miss 2 penalties in a row... what a joke.

Your signature phrase - "What's the point?" - answers your dilemma - Football Manager is comfortably one of the worst games I've ever seen so please don't waste any more money on it!

Ross I know what you're getting at but basically I have yet to find a game that doesn't hit me with these questions after a while and there are that many of them and they are that varied this topic could stretch on forever! For some reason odd ones do stay in my mind tho - Gold Digger once asked me how many tonnes of cheese the USA produced in 2001 and gave me 3 eight digit numbers... Caveman once gave me an 0800 number and asked me which business did it belong to ( I guessed and it was Lombard Direct!) and I think it was Hi Spy that gave me a complex differential equation to solve with three similar looking answers! Still hacked it though!

Aah, worry not... was the first and last 50p that it will receive of my money.
Got to 2 goals scored, and i was anticipating a decent payout and wondering what could go possibly wrong... then it sent my perfectly placed shot over the bar, then asked me a minute of "how many points did partick thistle end up with in the 1978/79 season?" type questions.
